Abstract
Canada represents one of the largest markets for pharmaceuticals in the world,
with a huge potential for generics. In 2008, generics accounted for more than
51% prescriptions and around 23% sales of the total pharmaceutical market. The
Canadian generics market is benefitting from several factors such as rapidly
ageing population, patent expiry of several blockbuster drugs, lower costs and
cost containment measures by the government.
According to our latest market research report, "Generic Drug Market in
Canada", low cost of generics and billion dollar drug patent expiries will
enable the generics market to continue its double-digit growth in the next
five years. Moreover, the current economic slowdown will also add to the
growth in sales of generics in the country.
Our report has identified that at present, drugs to treat chronic diseases
account for most of the pharmaceutical market, with cardiovascular drugs
holding the top spot. However in future, strong growth is expected in other
chronic segments, particularly in cancer and diabetes which will further drive
the market to maintain its growth pace.
The report provides thorough analysis of the factors that distinguish Canada
from other generics markets both in positive and negative ways. A major factor
that differentiates the Canadian generics market from the US and most European
markets, for instance, is comparatively higher prices of generics and lower
price erosion. As this characteristic of the market allows manufacturers to
fetch better margins from their drugs, many foreign players have shown keen
interest to enter the Canadian generics market to make most of this lucrative
characteristic.
"Generic Drug Market in Canada" provides extensive research and objective
analysis of the generic drug market in Canada. The report thoroughly evaluates
the current market trends and relates them with past trends to give future
growth prospects of various segments of the Canadian generic drug market. The
report examines the performance of various players in the Canadian
pharmaceutical and generic markets. Besides, a number of factors which can
deteriorate the future market growth have also been discussed in the report.
